Based on Kafka's letters to Felice, Unda Hörner compellingly and atmospherically narrates the tumultuous love story of the unusual couple, who meet repeatedly between 1912 and 1917, often at train stations, in parks, and hotels, in Berlin, Prague, or Marienbad. Kafka passionately courts Felice but soon reveals himself to be an insecure individual, primarily consumed by one thing - writing. Alongside this, a vivid portrait emerges of a lively young woman who loves her work, enjoys dancing, and does not shy away from Kafka's depths. Together with Kafka and Felice, the reader immerses deeply into the atmosphere of contemporary Berlin just before the outbreak of World War I, extending to the threshold of the 1920s - a fascinating glimpse, equally over Kafka's shoulder, into a bizarre love that leaves bright traces in world literature.
